1--WE Lost Our Senses"


The life of the rural editor is by no
means an alluring one at best, but
brother down in Mississippi has had
pretty tough experience, if the tale told
by himself is true. Here is what he
Says: son Thursday night, while we
were writing an editorial on the fnan-
cial condition of the country. some fiend
in human shape threw brick through
our window and struck us on the head.
We fell to our floor and lost our senses.
How long we remained in our condition
of Inconsistencies we know not. The
first thing we remember was being
taken up by Maj. Gribner, our good
friend. We were taken to drug store,
where our wound was dressed. Our
wife and children soon came, and we
were taken to our home. We are natur-
ally indignant over his cOwardly attack
upon us, and we offer years subscrip-
ton to the man who discovers who it
was that hit u.s."

A Theory and a Query.

Chicago Tribune.
A little three-year-old girl and her
grandmother were walking on Madison
street, day OF two ago, when they met
a man hobbling along on crutches.
'.Grandma," said the little girl, ''what
funny looking man. What's the matter
with him?" ''That poor man has only
one Leg" replied the lady; she is Grip
ple." The little blue eyes looked
sympathizingly and thoughtfully at
him, and for few moments the child
formed some kind of theory as to the
cause of the poor mans deformity, she
asked, "Grandma, what is God doing
with his other Lego"

New York is disgraced by the Grant

it is shocking-it is so small and plain
and cheap. 1t is fairly good copy of
all old-time Dutch bake oven done in
varigated bricks. The temporary rest

land is far handsomer. Not an hour of
daylight passes that from one to twenty
visitors do not visit the Grant tomb, and
on Sundays thousands go there. Inc

John l.. Sullivan, before sailing, was

belt, the gift Of cultured Boston. If he
had taken it abroad he might get in a
snarl as to duty with the revenue Off

his precious waistband to go into official

THE AUTHOR OF ONE POEM.

Milwaukee Sentinel.
There died at Bath, Steuben county,
n. Y, last month, at the age of fifty
eight, man who wrote one celebrated
poem, and, as far as the public know,
never did anything else that was re-
markable. His death has not attracted
as much notice in the press as would
that OF a secOnd-claSS variety show
actress. Indeed, the first mention we
have seen of it is not in newspaper,
but in the New York Critic, a literary
journal, which copies an article on the
man was Judge &. H. McMaSter, and
his one poem, doubtless familiar to
many readers of the Sentinel, since it is
included in many of the current collec-
tons of verse, is as follows:
CARMEN BELLICosUM.
In their ragged regimentals
Stood the old Continentals
Yielding not
While the grenadiers were lunging,
And like hail fell the plunging
Cannon-shot;
When the files
OF the isles,
From the smoky night encampment, bore the
banner of the rampant
Unieorn
And drummer, drummer, drummer, rolled the
roll Of the drummer,
Through the morn!
Then with eyes to the front, all,
And with guns horizontal,
Stood our sires;
While the balls whistled deadly,
And in streams flashing redly
BlaZed the fires;
AS the roar
On the shore
Swept the strong battle breakers DER the
green sodded acres
OF the plain;
And louder, louder. louder, cracked the black
gunpowder.
Cracking amain.
Now like smiths at their FORCES
Worked the red st. Georges
CannOneers;
And the villainous Saltpeter
Rang fierce, discordant metre
Round our ears
AS the swift
Storm drift,
With hot sweeping anger, came the horse
guards clangOr
On our flanks
Then higher, higher, higher burned the old
fashioned fire
Through the ranks,
Then the bare-headed Colonel
GallOped through the white internal
Powder-eloud;
And his broadsword was swinging
And his brazen throat was ringing
Trumpet-lOud;
Then the blue
Bullets flew.
And the trooper-jackets redden at the touch
of the leaden
Rife-breath:
And rounder, rounder, rouuder, roared the
iron six FOUNDER,
Hurting death!

DRAMATIC NOTES.

EMMA ABB0TT's drawing power stays by
her. There was a large matinee audience

HELENE BERTRAM, the new prima donna of
the Abbott company. had her first oppor-
tunity during the engagement to score sue

She sang the part of Mignonette in "Chimes
of Normandy with such exquisite art as TO
win the hearts of her audience. Miss Der
TRAM is brilliant debutante in opera, this
being her first season, and only now in her
eighth week on the stage. She is an Indian
apolis girl and has bright future before her.
In addition to an exceedingly handsome
face, pretty figure and graceful movements,
Miss BERTRAM possesses a voice of rare
sweetness. 1t has that delicate, bird-like
quality which is jewel to any opera singer
and exhibits most thorough culture.
Bohemian Girl" was never sung sweeter
than last night. Every member of the COM
pany seemed to be keyed up to the proper
pitch. and the whole performance went with
delicious ring to it. Miss ABBOTT was never
in better voice. and in addition gave dra-
matte Interpretation to the part of Airline
that made lovely stage picture.
LIZZIE ASSANDALE did herself proud in
both performances yesterday, and her audi
ences manifested the heartiest appreciation
